DescriptionsEdit Descriptions
- An account of the author's journey on foot across Europe from the Hook of Holland to Constantinople in 1933-34. 'A Time of Gifts' (1977) recounts the journey as far as the Danube. The second volume, 'Between the Woods and the Water' (1986) begins with the author crossing the Mária Valéria bridge into Hungary and ends at the Iron Gate where the Danube formed the boundary between the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and Romania. A long-awaited third volume, "The Broken Road" (2013), was published posthumously, and continues the journey from the Iron Gates to Mount Athos. (English, Unclassified)
